Hi guys. well basically im wondering if their are any members here from the USA who could help me out. I need some parts for my Asus laptop that only appear to be available from the Asus estore who only ship to america. the parts only amount to $13. i be willing to pay all shipping costs and compensate you a little for your help and time. So if anyone knows or can reccommend any trustworthy members it'd be massively appreciated. been trying to get these parts for months.

Thanks guys
 
Any chance that a well known auction site will have the parts you're looking for? Perhaps one of those sellers would be willing to ship internationally
 
tried the auction site everyweek for about the last 2months. typically though it seems they have every laptop and model apart from mine (Asus A8 series)
 
I think there is at least one parts store for Asus parts which covers the EU ... not sure if it'd be a competitor though. Looks like it's based in Sweden (sites languages are in Swedish, Finish and English).

Note that this is a 3rd party site and not ASUS themselves but seem to have things for lots of ASUS models (I came across them when investigating replacement fans for my eee901 ... haven't tried using them though).

edit: assuming that your other thread is related then they do have hinge covers listed for at least two models of A8 series laptops.

You could try emailing the store and seeing if they'd be willing to ship to the UK for you (obviously at a higher shipping cost etc)


You'll probbably find they'll be willing to do it.

Try it nothing to lose but everything to gain, so to speak :)
 
from my experience Asus customer service hasnt been the best. I've asked the estore if they'd ship to UK but they just stated that they only ship to USA and Canada. I've even contacted the UK Asus customer service to see if they could obtain the parts. They just directed me to some competitor website that dont even sell laptop parts.
 
memyselfandi you think you could tell me the place you're talking about. As it based in sweden surely it cant be classed as a competitor? also overclockers do not sell the parts i require so that would also neglect it as competition wouldnt it?
 
I'll do it if you want, email in trust. As long as I'm not getting mailed any narcotics because If you do I will hunt you down.

beaten by the clipster. dam.
 
Hmmmm Im dubious.... a member with 14 posts. I personally wouldnt accept any package saying "computer parts" which blatently contains a kilo of coke or someones kidney...

careful ;)

I'm probably being over cautious but they do sell replacement harddrives from what I saw so could (at a long stretch) be classed as a competitor as OcUK sell harddisks. I've replied to your mail though.
 
Huge thanks to memyselfandi hopefully sorted my problem, thanks to Clipsey and Killa Ken too for offering to help. I really appreciate it. Thanks again guys
